They have stood by me through thick and thin and have always been a positive example for me. I would like to see other people's lives and what kind of friends they made and I've noticed that as much as we don't like to admit it, your friends have a profound impact on the way you live your life. Memories help us understand who good friends are. I remember whenever I had no money and was hungry and needed money for the bus, or even needed a ride, I knew that my friends were always there for me. I remember my mother always left work late and I needed a place to stay after school and my friend would let me go to her house and buy me food. Friends can show their kindness in the smallest ways. Letting them give you advice can be very helpful, if it is wise. My friends were always there to give me advice on school, relationships and even the daily choices of adolescence, after my parents' divorce it was my friends who remained by my side
